Common modulation of limbic network activation underlies musical emotions as they unfold.

摘要: Music is a powerful means for communicating emotions among individuals. Here we reveal that this continuous stream of affective information commonly represented in the brains different listeners and particular musical attributes mediate link. We examined participants' brain responses to two naturalistic pieces using functional Magnetic Resonance imaging (fMRI). Following scanning, as participants listened second time, they continuously indicated their emotional experience on scales valence arousal. These reports were used along with detailed annotation features, predict novel index Dynamic Common Activation (DCA) derived from ten large-scale data-driven networks. found an association between unfolding music-induced emotionality DCA modulation within vast network limbic regions. The limbic-DCA further corresponded changes temporal features: beat-strength tempo. Remarkably, "collective sensitivity" features was link reported emotionality. An additional left fronto-parietal network, but only sub-group high level (>5years). findings may indicate processing-levels underlying common music emotionality; (1) widely shared core-affective process confined mediated by regularities (2) based rooted involve functioning 'mirror-neuron system'.
